Analyzing the Ninja World Starting from Konoha

Chapter 167 Is this something a normal person would do?

Being so disrespected by a mere Konoha brat, Rasa's face instantly darkened to the point of being almost dripping with water.

As the Fourth Kazekage and the highest leader of Sunagakure, how could he have ever suffered such humiliation?

What's more, the opponent used the sand control technique that Sunagakure is most proud of!

"Arrogant brat! Using our Sand Village's ninjutsu, you dare to be so cocky in front of me!"

Luo Sha roared angrily, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

He raised his palm and slammed it into the ground, causing the earth to tremble violently as his chakra surged wildly into the earth.

"Today I'll show you what true 'Shadow' magnanimity is!"

"Magnetic Escape·Golden River!"

Rumble!

With Luo Sha's roar, the ground beneath his feet shattered.

The massive gold dust that had been lurking underground was transformed into a surging golden river by the Magnet Release chakra, rushing towards Aoba in mid-air with terrifying, destructive power.

The golden waves blotted out the sky, even larger than before. Even though they were far from the battle zone, the heavy oppressive feeling still made both sides feel breathless.

Is this the power of the Village's Shadow?!

However, faced with this attack that seemed like a natural disaster, Aoba felt not fear at all, but even a little bit of excitement!

That was the excitement of fighting against a strong opponent.

"tolerance?"

Aoba's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mocking smile.

"Coincidentally, I don't have many other hobbies. What I like to do most is to measure other people's magnanimity."

As he spoke, Aoba took out a scroll and unrolled it with one hand.

The character "sand" in the center of the reel suddenly lit up, and the next moment, a large amount of yellowish-brown sand gushed out of the reel like a floodgate opening!

These grains of sand, together with the sand gushing from the large, earthen-yellow gourd behind Qingye, instantly formed a massive sand wave that was in no way inferior to the Gold Sand River!

"go!"

Aoba waved his hand.

The yellowish-brown sand waves crashed against the Luosha Gold Sand River!

boom-!!!

Golden gold dust collided violently with yellow sand in mid-air!

In an instant, the terrifying shockwave transformed into a raging wind, snapping all the surrounding trees, and sandstorms swept across the area like a torrential downpour.

The gold dust and yellow sand were mixed together, like two giant beasts fighting to the death, and for a time it was difficult to determine who was superior.

The shockwave spread in all directions, uprooting rocks and trees from the ground.

The Konoha ninja watching from afar couldn't help but take another step back, their faces filled with shock.

"Are all young people these days monsters?!"

A Konoha veteran remarked that even during the last Shinobi World War, such a level of ninjutsu combat was extremely rare.

The gold dust was blocked.

Luo Sha's eyes narrowed suddenly.

His placer gold has an extremely high density and a weight far exceeding that of ordinary sand, so it should have an absolute crushing advantage in a head-on confrontation!

But the sand from this kid in front of him actually blocked his gold sand river!

This control—

"impossible!"

Luo Sha was startled, but his expression remained cold and stern as he quickly formed hand seals.

"Sand is just sand, but gold dust is metal!"

He wanted to make this arrogant brat understand that there was an insurmountable gap between Magnet Release and ordinary sand control techniques!

"Magnetic Escape·Alluvial Gold Realm Method!"

In mid-air, the golden torrent that was locked in a stalemate with the yellow sand suddenly changed shape!

In an instant, the sand and gold dust transformed into thousands upon thousands of incredibly sharp golden spears and spikes, like a dense rainstorm, carrying an overwhelming momentum, piercing through the yellow sand's defenses and shooting towards Qingye!

Each of the gold-flecked spears possesses terrifying penetrating power, enough to easily pierce through steel!

Faced with this unavoidable saturation attack, Qingye remained unmoved and simply raised his right hand.

The sand gourds behind him converged in front of him at an extremely fast speed, compressing and shaping in the blink of an eye, eventually forming a huge iris shield with layers upon layers, blooming like flower petals.

[Seven Rings Covering the Blazing Sky]!

Ding ding ding!!

Countless sand-gold spears slammed into the sand shield, producing a crisp sound like metal clashing, and sparks flew everywhere!

However, the seemingly fragile sand shield showed unexpected resilience.

The first layer is cracked.

The second layer, shattered.

But when they broke through to the sixth level, the momentum of those gold dust spears came to a complete halt.

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated.

The shield in front of Qingye was riddled with golden spears and spikes, but none of them pierced through. The entire shield was tattered, but it still steadily protected his figure.

Looking at Aoba, who was completely unharmed behind the sand shield, Luo Sha's eyes showed disbelief for the first time.

"It blocked it—it blocked it?!"

How is that possible!

How could ordinary sand possibly withstand the penetrating attack of his high-density gold dust?!

In fact, as the Kazekage, Rasa also knew the secret technique of sand control, as did his wife Karura, whose sand control technique was even more outstanding.

But in his opinion, the Sand Control Technique was nothing special; sand was just sand, how could it compare to the iron sand and gold sand of Magnet Release?

If he had ever seen Madara Uchiha use ninjutsu, he would understand that even the same ninjutsu can have completely different power and effects depending on who uses it.

Here we must mention Sasori of the Red Sand, because Sasori took a completely opposite path to Aoba.

Scorpion can also create sand clones. He also derived another secret technique from the sand manipulation technique called "Mind Manipulation Sand," which transforms sand into tiny needles that pass through the brain's memory center, thereby sealing the target's memory and achieving the technique of controlling memory.

Therefore, even after obtaining the complete sand control technique, Aoba continued to optimize and upgrade the ninjutsu.

He was confident that even Gaara at his peak in the future wouldn't be much better than him in sand manipulation.

Just then, Rasa, through his Magnet Release chakra perception, suddenly sensed something amiss.

He suddenly realized what was happening, and his expression changed drastically.

"No! Your sand contains more than just ordinary sand!"

Luo Sha's voice carried a hint of undisguised shock.

He clearly sensed that, hidden within the innermost layer of Qingye's layered yellow sand shield was a layer of high-density metal particles!

It was this layer of metallic particles that greatly enhanced the shield's defensive capabilities, allowing it to withstand his Sand Gold Realm Magic!

But—how is that possible?!

Luo Sha found it incredible.

He was 100% certain that this Konoha brat in front of him did not have the Magnet Release Kekkei Genkai!

Without the Magnet Release bloodline limit, how does he manipulate metal?!

Rasa never imagined that someone would mix valuable metal chakra into metal particles to achieve an alternative method of controlling metal.

Or rather, even if you think of it, you feel it's impossible.

After all, metal chakra is very expensive. If a little bit of metal chakra is added to an ordinary weapon, its price can increase by dozens or even hundreds of times.

Who would waste chakra metal like that?

This is a difference in perspective. Just like how ordinary people wouldn't imagine that someone would make gold into electrical wires, with the purpose of stabilizing voltage.

"How did you do that?"

Rasa's voice was deep, "You don't have Magnet Release, so how do you control metal?"

Qingye hovered in mid-air, and upon hearing this, she merely smiled slightly without replying.

Such a stupid question, even Rasa has the nerve to ask it, and Aoba wouldn't dare to say it.

"Don't get too cocky!"

Luo Sha roared and manipulated the gold dust to meet the attack.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In mid-air, the golden gold dust and the yellowish-brown sand once again engaged in a fierce clash.

The two exchanged blows, the booming sounds of their ninjutsu clashing echoing endlessly.

However, as time went on, Luo Sha's expression grew increasingly grim.

He discovered that no matter how powerful his attacks were, Aoba could easily neutralize them with sand.

Aside from the sand, the two used almost identical ninjutsu. It was just a simple sand manipulation technique, but they used it with the power of Magnet Release!

To this end, Rasa secretly mixed some gold dust into Aoba's sand, attempting to interfere with the sand's fluidity from the inside.

Gold dust has a density far exceeding that of ordinary sand, and mixing it into the sand can significantly weaken an opponent's control over it.

However, Aoba simply smiled slightly.

"Lord Kazekage's tricks are far too obvious."

As soon as he finished speaking, the gold dust that had been mixed in seemed to be picked out by an invisible force, precisely stripped from the sand flow of Qingye and falling directly to the ground.

Luo Sha's face immediately turned extremely ugly.

"Lord Fengying, shall we continue?"

Qingye slowly took out two scrolls and casually unrolled them.

Two more massive streams of yellow sand surged out and merged into the sea of ​​sand around him, causing his already enormous sand reserves to increase dramatically once again.

Aoba smiled and shrugged, saying sincerely, "It's alright, Lord Kazekage, you can continue. I have plenty of sand, I guarantee you'll have enough."

"puff--!"

Seeing this, Luo Sha almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

He was completely numb!

Unlike the deserts of the Land of Wind, he couldn't extract gold dust from the earth as easily as he could in his hometown. In the Land of Fire, a region with lush forests, extracting even a single grain of gold dust consumed a large amount of his chakra.

The placer gold he's using now was all secretly extracted and accumulated along the way for this raid.

Although the quantity was not small, most of it had already been consumed after the series of events just now.

And what about that brat on the other side?

They were carrying a bunch of sealed scrolls, filled with sand that had been prepared in advance.

No, is this something a normal person would do?

Who would use a precious sealing scroll to seal away this useless sand?

How can we fight like this?!

As Luo Sha looked at the yellow sand gushing out in mid-air, he couldn't help but feel an extremely absurd illusion.

This brat's application of sand manipulation techniques is exactly the same as that of Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, from their Land of Wind!

No, it even surpasses that destructive beast in terms of refinement!

At this moment, he had to admit that this kid from Konoha had mastered the Sand Village's proud sand control technique to an astonishing level.
